I reject your notion that a business degree is useless. I graduated ~6 months ago into a job paying 45k a year, and my wife graduated 1.5 half ago with a similar job. Both of us had business degrees.

And what skills did you bring to the table, I assure you, it was not your BBA alone. I would be almost certain you have strong work ethic and other skills.

Right, but that's not an accurate conclusion that a business degree is useless. Maybe if you said "a business degree is useless for MOST people." Semantics, I know. Or had you chosen "women's studies" or "music." I'm sorry to all those with those degrees, but...REALLY? What kind of job do you think you can get with that?

i left school at 16 sat on my ass and got stoned for 2.5 years then started working on building sites as a laborer for 2 years then i got a an apprenticeship i am now 24 with six months left to go then i have a job for life in every country on the planet and even if i cant get a job in my trade i would sure get a job doing semi skilled work.

as for my friend Katie, stayed in school till she was 18 went to university for 4 years and got a law degree she now works at Marks and Spencers full time she would be better off now if she left school at 16 and went to work

half of college grads are fucking retarded with low GPAs in bullshit majors at bullshit universities.

Tough shit.

Jesus is the perfect man. And when I am in Church and I see Him hanging on the cross, the only thing I can think about is ripping his loin cloth off and suckin' him so good while he is on there.

Jesus is God. Jesus designed the Universe. Jesus designed your vagina and the orgasm. Jesus knows best. Jesus knows how to work your wet gash unlike anyone or anything. Please Jesus, take me, and I will serve you all the hot fish pie you can stomach. Amen.

Going to school doesn't guarantee a job...learning to do something that someone is willing to pay you for does...

Your typical millionaire next door, the one that drives an average car and has an average home, doesn't have a typical college degree...he's probably mid 40's has a wife and kids and you'd never know he is a millionaire when you see him at the grocery or at the movies...

These jobs may seem like science fiction, but in the not-too-distant future these will be some of the most sought after careers. [link to www.investopedia.com]

Genetic counselors already make a lot of money. My old room mate was going to school to become one.

However I don't agree with the rest of the list.

Jeremy Epstein, the college kid who asked about jobs during the debate, is studying "Exercise Science".

Is this a high demand specialty likely to lead to a "good job"?

Decent job considering all the old people need more and more physical therapists.
